One year ago Wesley Townsend Kitten of WTK Photography started filming bits of time lapse to document The City of San Francisco a little differently than the average photographer.

About 250-300 hours, 28,000 frames and 85 shots later he compiled this video. I've never been to San Francisco, but after watching this I feel like I know her a little better. You can almost see the city breathing with the patterns and bustle of traffic.

Mission Bicycle Company in San Francisco builds custom and quality bikes for city riding, and they promise to build the bike of your dreams.

Their steel bikes weigh less than twenty pounds, and are custom built, part by part, to last a lifetime. Like a Cold Stone Creamery or Build a Bear for bicycles, their workshop and website displays custom elements, from frames, to handlebars, to wheel walls, you can pick and choose, colors, styles, finishes and more.

Time Belonax is a once design student, professional designer, again student with a beautiful and impressive portfolio. He gathered up his design expertise and experiences and went back to hit the books for his MFA in graphic design at the California Institute of the Arts. He was kind enough to take some time to answer a few questions, and even provided some bonus design resources and recommendations. Read his insights and see works from his portfolio below.

Is it possible to design moveable and interactive web content without the use of flash? Of course, but some do better than others, and San Francisco-based Odopod is one such over-achiever (obviously a good thing). They are the masters behind the Sony PIIQ headphones site, and their web design follows web standards, in a clean, attractive and grid-based system.
